Guests embarking in Marseille need to be at 17.00 hrs (End of check-in) in the theater for the life drill. They checked the presense and scanned the card at the entry. For every muster station they had a dedicated corner in the theater.

My boss will be glad to know: just for the worst case: we do not use the same life boat. Which means that maybe 50% could come for work on Monday in case we will sink... And I was a lucky man: guess I had to share one life boat with girls: then I need to have my ENT-doctor with me to survive.

We need to take pictures of ourselves. Due to lack of photographers who came on previous cruises to make revenue during the life drill. We saw for a short moment our embarkation pictures but we did not make it again to see them after dinner. The one on the top was not good.

After we finally reached our muster station in the African Lounge and confirmed that we knew that we had to come here and not to the theater it was declared the end of the life drill. The other life boat would have sank during the life drill. The girls told us later that they had some troubles because it was not as free of problems as it should be.
